I started with a long strip of t-shirt fabric...it's about 1 1/2" wide |
At each side of the mask, I sewed the t-shirt strip RST. |
Turn it to the backside, and stitch-in-the-ditch in the front. Cut away the excess fabric on the back. |
Cut a piece of 1/4" elastic 25" long (this works for me -- you may want it to be a few inches longer or shorter)...use a bodkin or safety pin to pull it through one side... |
Then, pull it through the other side...NOW sew the elastic to form a perfect circle! |
To be fancy -- hide the joined ends in one side...and zigzag it in place. |
Taking this step makes for a perfectly smooth piece of elastic -- both at your neck and on the top of your head. |
